If the email account you have is your assigned PRIMARY account, unfortunately it cannot be removed or deleted nor logged out, but can only be deleted by doing a factory reset of your phone by going to settings then about , then reset you`ll find there `restore to factory settings.

Now if in the event that the Hotmail account that you wish to remove is not assigned being your primary account but rather another account currently logged in, here are the steps to sign it of.

1. Hold your phone and go to Home screen,2. Go to Settings 3. Go to email+accounts
4. Browse to the Hotmail account you wish to remove,
5. Hold and keep your finger on it for 3-5 seconds.
6. Select delete. then it will be deleted.

"The first windows live id you add to the phone is used for contact sync..."

Hello!

You can`t. The first Windows Live ID you add to the phone is used for contact sync, calendar sync, Xbox Live, app purchases, Zune Pass, Messenger... anything built into the phone that requires the use of a WLID. The only thing you can turn off is email syncing for that account. To remove it, you would have to hard reset the phone (Settings>about>more info) and set it up from factory condition, but never ever add a WLID to the phone, which would also severely impact usage of the phone.

Hello there and thank you for using our service. I see that you already understand the process of deleting accounts from your phone. So I`m going to ask you to delete BOTH Hotmail accounts this time. Restart your phone. Then add your Hotmail account to the phone again. There should simply be ONE this time. However, if this is not the case you may need further instructions. Remember to reply to my answer if you need more assistance.

Here is how it is done unless it is the main account:
1- Go to Settings
2- Go to email+accounts
3- Browse to the email account you wish to remove,
4- Click and keep your finger on it for 3 seconds (or more)
5- Select delete

You will need to delete your account if that is what you want. You just need to go to Settings and from there Select Manage Account. You can see your hotmail account from there and then you delete it from there. Once deleted you then your hotmail should not be able to be opened on your phone.
